Is this logo offensive?

[u/Kokovi_illust]

Hi guys! When I was designing the logo, I sincerely didn't know about this symbol and it was honestly just a coincidence that the symbol in the logo and the intersex* symbol are the same!

In the comic, I touch on many queer situations, mental health and disabilities, however, none of it is related to intersex people experiences, and now I'm worried that I've been unknowingly making fun of it or being offensive by having made my logo this way :(

Do you think it's wiser to change the logo? Aw man, I'm just so disappointed in myself, I'm really sorry

////Edit* Someone here informed me that the term intersex is better than hermaphrodite, so I changed the terms! Sorry for my ignorance! (⁠˘⁠･⁠_⁠･⁠˘⁠)

Intersex person here, I am not remotely offended by it. What's more offensive is the term 'hermaphrodite'.

Oh, is it an offensive term? I'm really sorry! I really don't know much about it, so I just took the term from the comment :(

Thank you for telling me!

You're welcome, no worries :) it's not offensive to not know, what matters is now you do.

Now I changed the terms in the desc of the post ☺️🩷 I'm really thankful!
